LYNYRD SKYNYRD lyrics - That's How I Like It

Let me tell ya...



Where I come from it's grits and gravy not champagne and caviar

Got pickup trucks, ain't no mercedes, that's who we are (Oooooh.. Yeah I wouldn't change a thing)

I ain't no saint sometimes a sinner and I can't tell you why

But I get up every mornin' and thank the man above (Oooooh WOOOoo my life is good)



Let me tell ya how good... hahaaa



Like my women hot and my beer ice cold

A real fast car and my whiskey old

Like a slow drive down and old dirt road

That's How I like it

I like to turn my music way up loud

Ain't nothin' better than the sound of a crowd

American flag it makes me proud

That's how I like it



Wooooo...aaah... Listen now...



Ain't no cell phone towers, you won't catch me online

Workin' with my hands for hours, is how I spend my time

And I don't stand in line for coffee, It ain't my cup of tea

Out here in the country we got everything we need Ooooh Woooo yeah..



Like my women hot and my beer ice cold

A real fast car and my whiskey old

Like a slow drive down and old dirt road

That's How I like it

I like to turn my music way up loud

Ain't nothin' better than the sound of a crowd

American flag it makes me proud

That's how I like it yeah..



Ooooohhhh...



WOOooooo That's how I like it



[Whistle]



Like my women hot and my beer ice cold

A real fast car and my whiskey old

Like a slow drive down and old dirt road

That's How I like it

I like to turn my music way up loud

Ain't nothin' better than a Skynyrd crowd

American flag it makes me proud

That's how I like it yeah...

That's how I like it

That's how I like it



WOOOOOoooo



Yeah....

CHER lyrics - When Lovers Become Strangers

You're looking at him from across the room

Wondering just how it all slipped away so soon

You'relooking to find some look in his eyes

That will take you back to yesterday

Don't remember the when or the where or why

All you know is that something has changed inside

And you can't bring it back no matter how you try

You know it's over

You've got to say goodbye



[Chorus:]

It's such a shame when lovers become strangers

It's such a shame when you don't know each other anymore

And all the memories that you share

Are all that's still there

It's such a shame when lovers become strangers



You can't seem to find the right words to say

And it's too late for talking now anyway

There's no one to blame, it's just not the same

And it's never gonna be the same again

So, you're trying to figure out what went wrong

Where does the feeling go when the feeling's gone

And you pray for the strength just to carry on

You've got to let go of someone you've loved so long



[Chorus]



So kiss him goodbye

Try to walk away with you head held high

Think about the good times

Don't cry, don't cry

Though it's tearing you apart inside

It's such a shame

It's such a shame

And you can't bring it back no matter how you try

You know it's over

You've got to say goodbye



[Chorus]

DREAM THEATER lyrics - Hollow Years

(John Petrucci)



He's just the kind of man

You hear about

Who leaves his family for

An easy out

They never saw the signs

He never said a word

He couldn't take another day



Carry me to the shoreline

Bury me in the sand

Walk me across the water

And maybe you'll understand



Once the stone

You're crawling under

Is lifted off your shoulders

Once the cloud that's raining

Over your head disappears

The noise that you'll hear

Is the crashing down of hollow years



She's not the kind of girl

You hear about

She'll never want another

She'll never be without

She'll give you all the signs

She'll tell you everything

Then turn around and walk away



Carry me to the shoreline

Bury me in the sand

(Into the waves)

Walk me across the water

And maybe you'll understand



Once the stone

You're crawling under

(Once the stone)

Is lifted off your shoulders

Once the cloud that's raining

Over your head disappears

The noise that you'll hear

Is the crashing down of hollow years



Carry me to the shoreline

Bury me in the sand

(Into the waves)

Walk me across the water

And maybe you'll understand



Once the stone

You're crawling under

Is lifted off your shoulders

Once the cloud that's raining

Over your head disappears

The noise that you'll hear

Is the crashing down of hollow years



Once the stone

You're crawling under

Once the stone

You're crawling under

(The sound you'll hear,)

Once the stone

(the crashing)

You're crawling under

(down of hollow years)

Once the stone

You're crawling under

Once the stone

You're crawling under

Once the stone

You're crawling under

(The sound you'll hear, the crashing down of hollow years)

ANNIE LENNOX lyrics - Don't Take Me Down

I was floating in the cool of your river

I was drifting in a tide of pure water

Oh wash me in the flood of creation

Don't take me down

Don't take me down with you



My innocence has all but been taken

Oh given to the cruelty of strangers

Who took me out from safety to danger

Don't take me down

Don't take me down with you



Don't take me down my friend

I wanna live my time again yea

Got so used to loser's luck

But I don't wanna give it up



I'm comin' up to take my breath again

Oh love is like a pool of forgiveness

I wish that I could fly with the angels

Don't take me down

Don't take me down with you



I've been caught by the spell of temptation

I've been burned by the hell of damnation

And I don't need to be taken there again

All I want's for this wounded heart to mend

EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - Ballard Of A Runaway Horse

(Leonard Cohen)



Say a prayer for the cowgirl her horse ran away

She'll walk 'til she finds him her darlin' her stray

But the river's in flood and the roads are awash

And the bridges break up in the panic of loss



And there's nothin' to follow nowhere to go

He's gone like the summer gone like the snow

And the crickets are breaking her heart with their song

As the day caves in and the night is all wrong



Did she dream it was he who went galloping past

And bent down the fern broke open the grass

And printed the mud with the well-hammered shoe

That she nailed to his speed in the dreams of her youth



And although he goes grazin' a minute away

She tracks him all night she tracks him all day

And she's blind to his presence except to compare

Her injury here with his punishment there



Then at home on a branch on a high stream

A songbird sings out so suddenly

And the sun is warm and the soft winds ride

On a willow tree by the riverside



An the world is sweet and world is wide

And he's there where the light and the darkness divide

And the steam's comin' off him he's huge and he's shy

And he steps on the moon when he paws at the sky



And he comes to her hand but he's nor really tame

He longs to be lost she longs for the same

And he'll bolt and he'll plunge thru the first open pass

To roll and to feed in the sweet mountain grass



Or he'll make a break for the high plateau

Where there's nothing above and noting below

It's time for their burden the whip and the spur

Will she ride with him or will he ride with her



So she binds herself to her galloping steed

And he binds himself to the woman in need

And there is no space just left and right

And there is no time but there is day and night



Then she learns on his neck and whispers low

Whither thou goest I will go

And they turn as one the head for the plain

No need for the whip oh no need for the rain



Now the clasp of this union who fastens it tight

Who snaps it asunder the very next night

Some say it's him some say it's her

Some say love's like smoke beyond all repair



So my darlin' my darlin' just let go by

That old silhouette on the great western sky

And I'll pick out a tune and they'll move right along

And they're gone like smoke and they're gone like this song



Say a prayer for the cowgirl

STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN lyrics - Big Story

(Steven Curtis Chapman)



[Psalm 19:1-4, 47:7-9 / Isaiah 40:21-26 / Colossians 1:16-22]



I hear th e rumors of another world

Like distant voices in the wind

They say there is a story being told

Bigger than I can comprehend

And in the rumors I can hear an invitation calling



[Chorus:]

This is the, the big story

There is a God who's in control

Telling the, the big story

And He wants us to know

We will find ourselves

When we loose ourselves

In the bigger story

Come and take your place in the story



We all live in this place called the here and now

We see what's right before our eyes

But right here right now heaven's coming down

All around God's story is coming alive

And in this moment if we listen

We can hear Him calling



Captivating, fascinating, all consuming

Never concluding

One and only

Ever unfolding

Story of stories

The big, big story

UB40 lyrics - Come Out To Play

He used to think that it was neat

When he hung out on the street

Now that it's his daily beat, he's not so sure

Cause he's come to depend

On a street with a dead end

And he'll sell you his best friend, so he can score



Boys and girls come out to play

The junk mans on the streets to say

He'll make your dreams feel real today

And steal your minds tomorrow



Now his thoughts don't seem so clear

His whole life is filled with fear

His habit cost him dear in every way

His girl can't take the heat

But his friends all cross the street

Still the needle keeps him sweet

If he can pay for one more day



His bones have got no meat

He's unsteady on his feet

And he doesn't get to eat, not every day

What started out for kicks

Has become a daily fix

And his girlfriend's turning tricks to pay his way



Boys and girls come out to play

The junk man's on the streets to say

He'll make your dreams feel real today

And steal your minds tomorrow

BON JOVI lyrics - Fast Cars

How can I defend

"Let's live for now and not then"

We're chasing taillights,

Let them fade into the distance

Let's say the engine stalled and start again



Turn around, let's turn around

It's a dark road we been heading down

Trust me tonight I swear I know where we are

We're gonna run all the lights

We're gonna blow right through the radar



Fast cars

We are fast cars



How can I pretend The signs don't say dead end

So many hearts just wind up in a junkyard

Where memories are nothing but spare parts



Turn around, just turn around

And leave the past behind us now

Come on, we ain't gonna crash

This time we ain't slowing down

We'll pull ahead of the pack

Slip thru the cracks cause we are



Fast cars

On a long ride Take your foot off the brake

Let's just put it in drive

We are fast cars On the inside

There's no turning back

On the highway of life

Fast cars

We are fast cars



(Sha la, sha la)

Flying through the stop signs

(Sha la, sha la)

Running over bad times

(Sha la, sha la)

Gunning down the daylight

Counting days like white lines

Holding on for our lives



We are fast cars



We are fast cars

On a long ride

Take your foot off the brake

Let's just put it in drive

We are fast cars

On the inside

There's no turning back

On this highway tonight



(Sha la, sha la)

(Sha la, sha la)

We are fast cars

(Sha la, sha la)

We are fast cars

We are fast cars

REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - We'll Waltz In Love Tonight

(Tom Davey/Johnny MacRae/Bob Morrison)



I saw you softly smiling

And the band begins to play

Your eyes they seem to whisper

Let's dance the night away



We two stepped and we polkad

But the magic happened when

We waltzed together and knew

That we never be changing partners again



So while the music's playing

Let's hold each other tight

You're heart and mine

In three quarter mine

And we'll waltz in love tonight



The day is finally over

The kids are all in bed

The troubles of our busy life

Are dancing in our heads

We barely hear the radio

Till the waltz begins to play

And there's no concealing

The magic, the feeling

Just sweeps our hearts away



So while the music's playing

Let's hold each other tight

You're heart and mine

In three quarter mine

And we'll waltz in love tonight



Your heart and mine

In 3 quarter time

And we'll waltz in love tonight

GEORGE STRAIT lyrics - Overnight Male

Let me be your mailman and I'll always come through.

There's no denyin', come rain or shine, I'll deliver my love to you.

I do things by the letter, you can put your stamp on me

'Cause there ain't nobody better for a special delivery.



[Chorus:]

Like a pony express in the wild, wild west, I'll ride hard all night long.

And I can saddle up fast, get you there first class long before the dawn.

You know your mail's gonna get to you come snow, rain, sleet or hail

'Cause I'm a top flight, hold-you-tight,

Get-you-there-by-daylight, do-you-right overnight male.



I know your heart is fragile, so I'll handle it with care.

There ain't no doubt, I know love's route, so baby let me take you there.

I'll bring you cards and flowers, but I know just what you need.

Just give me 24-hours satisfaction guarantee.



[Chorus]



Yeah I'm a top flight, hold you tight,

Get you there by daylight, do you right overnight male.

LORETTA LYNN lyrics - He's All I Got

(Gary Bonds - Jerry Williams)



Well I said friend don't take him he's all I got

Please don't take his love away from me

I'm a beggin' you friend don't take him he's all I got

He's everything in life I'll ever need



He is life when I wanna live he's everything to me in life that life can give

He's my water when I need to drink

He's the first thought in my mind each time I try to think

Let me tell you now friend...



He's my fingers when I wanna feel

He's the only thing in life to me that's really real

He is love all the love I know

He can kiss the ground in the wintertime and make the flowers grow

Let me tell you now friend...

Hear me talkin' now now friend don't take him he's all I got

I'm a beggin' you friend don't take him he's all I got

THE ROLLING STONES lyrics - Yesterday's Papers

(Jagger/Richards)



Who wants yesterdays papers

Who wants yesterdays girl

Who wants yesterdays papers

Nobody in the world

After this time i finally learned

After the pain and hurt

After all this what have i achieved

I've realized it's time to leave

Cause

Who wants yesterdays papers

Who wants yesterdays girl

Who wants yesterdays papers

Nobody in the world

Living a life of constant change

Every day means the turn of a page

Yesterdays papers are such bad news

Same thing applies to me and you

Who wants yesterdays papers

Who wants yesterdays girl

Who wants yesterdays papers

Nobody in the world

Seems very hard to have just one girl

When there's a million in the world

All of these people just can't wait

To fall right into their big mistake

Who wants yesterdays papers

Who wants yesterdays girl

Who wants yesterdays papers

Nobody in the world

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN lyrics - Precious Love

(Olivia Newton-John/Annie Roboff)



In this world where life keeps changing

Nothing ever seemed to be enough

I kept on, my soul was searching

Looking for something that would fill me up

I have always felt a yearning

Something inside me was unsatisfied



Precious love

You woke my heart up

It's been sleeping for such a long time

This crazy feeling I can believe in

Your love has found its way into my life



Take our time, slow and easy

I'm so comfortable when I'm with you

Catch my breath when you come near me

Can't control this if I wanted to

Thought I'd never trust another

But here in your arms I feel safe again



Precious love

You woke my heart up

It's been sleeping for such a long time

This crazy feeling I must be dreaming

Your love has found its way into my life



You touched a part of me

And set my spirit free

Precious love



This crazy feeling I must be dreaming

Your love has found its way into my life

You know, your precious love has changed my life

MOTORHEAD lyrics - Going Down

Dr. Rock is gonna shoot you full of rock & Roll,

We do it real good,

Loud & clear, we beat the drum,

We gonna make you run.

In the name of Rock & Roll, fire in the sky,

Going down, going down,

So don't you even try,

We run through the city, got everything we need,

We got all the aces & we got them up our sleeve,



Gonna see the Dr, take away your pain,

We do it real fine,

We say what we mean, we mean what we say,

We're gonna make your day,

LiedertexteIn the name of Rock & Roll, fire in the sky,

Going down, going down,



You can't mess with Dr. Rock,

So don't you even try,

We run through the city, got everything we need,

We got all the aces & we got them up our sleeve,



Crossing over rivers, over mountains, over seas,

Coming to rock your world,

Hear us scream, whatever can it mean,

We're gonna steal your girl,

In the name of Rock & Roll, fire in the sky,

Going down, going down,



You can't mess with Dr. Rock,

That's right, don't you even try,

We run through the city, got everything we need,

We got all the aces & we got them up our sleeve,

Right now

THE ROLLING STONES lyrics - Memory Motel

(Jagger/Richards)



Hannah honey was a peachy kind of girl

Her eyes were hazel

And her nose were slightly curved

We spent a lonely night at the Memory Motel

It's on the ocean, I guess you know it well

It took a starry to steal my breath away

Down on the water front

Her hair all drenched in spray



Hannah baby was a honey of a girl

Her eyes were hazel

And her teeth were slightly curved

She took my guitar and she began to play

She sang a song to me

Stuck right in my brain



You're just a memory of a love

That used to be

You're just a memory of a love

That used to mean so much to me



She got a mind of her own

And she use it well

Well she's one of a kind

She's got a mind

She got a mind of her own

And she use it mighty fine



She drove a pick-up truck

Painted green and blue

The tires were wearing thin

She turned a mile or two

When I asked her where she headed for

"Back up to Boston I'm singing in a bar"

I got to fly today on down to Baton Rouge

My nerves are shot already

The road ain't all that smooth

Across in Texas is the rose of San Antone

I keep on a feeling that's gnawing in my bones



You're just a memory of a love

That used to mean so much to me

You're just a memory girl

You're just a sweet memory

And it used to mean so much to me

Sha la la la la



She got a mind of her own

And she use it well

Mighty fine, she's one of a kind



On the seventh day my eyes were all a glaze

We've been ten thousand miles

Been in fifteen states

Every woman seemed to fade out of my mind

I hit the bottle and hit the sack and cried

What's all this laughter on the 22nd floor

It's just some friends of mine

And they're busting down the door

Been a lonely night at the Memory Motel

STEVE EARLE lyrics - Halo 'Round The Moon

(Steve Earle)



There's a halo 'round the moon

So I know it ain't to blame

'Cause I knew what love could do

But I loved her just the same

Then I let her slip away

Now I'm all alone and blue

That's the price I got to pay

There's a halo 'round the moon



There's a ghost that haunts this town

Just ask anyone you see

He drags his chain around

And no spell can set him free

And he looks a lot like me

And if you ask him why he's bound

He'll just say he lost the key

There's a ghost that haunts this town



There's no shelter from the storm

Without the lightnin' and the rain

And love would hold no charm

If it wasn't for the pain

And it's always been that way

No matter what you do

No matter what you say

There's a halo 'round the moon

GLORIA ESTEFAN lyrics - Oye

Mi cuerpo pide oye (my body wants)

Oye mi cuerpo pide salsa (hey my body wants salsa)

Y con este ritmo (and with this rhythm)

Vamos a bailar (let's dance)



Oye mi cuerpo pide salsa (hey my body wants to salsa)

Y con este ritmo (and with this rhythm)

Vamos a bailar (let's dance)

No quiero parar (I don't want to stop



Hey boy I see you're lookin'

I know you're watchin'

But you won't make that move

Oye, I know you want me

I'm trying to show you

There's no way you can lose-oh baby

C'mon over here and give me what I want

If you don't know how I'll teach you fast

We don't have to worry 'bout tomorrow now

I know that I want you

And I want this night to last



Oye mi cuerpo pide salsa

Y con este ritmo

Vamos a bailar

No quiero parar



There now, a little closer

Just hold me me tighter and you'll be doing fine

Rico, that's what you feel like

You warm my body

Just like the bright sunshine

Every time I touch you I feel no worries

I discover things I never new

Feeling this desire coming over me

Can no longer fight it

I just want to be with you



Oye mi cuerpo pide salsa

Y con este ritmo

Vamos a bailar



Oye mi cuerpo pide salsa

Y con este ritmo

Vamos a bailar

No quiero parar

DIRE STRAITS lyrics - Brothers In Arms

These mist covered mountains

Are a home now for me

But my home is the lowlands

And always will be

Some day you'll return to

Your valleys and your farms

And you'll no longer burn

To be brothers in arm



Through these fields of destruction

Baptism of fire

I've watched all your suffering

As the battles raged higher

And though they did hurt me so bad

In the fear and alarm

You did not desert me

My brothers in arms



There's so many different worlds

So many different suns

And we have just one world

But we live in different ones



Now the sun's gone to hell

And the moon's riding high

Let me bid you farewell

Every man has to die

But it's written in the starlight

And every line on your palm

We're fools to make war

On our brothers in arms

ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA lyrics - Take Me On And On

The stars that shine so brightly

They call to me

I dream of how it might be

Somewhere far away



Chorus: Take me on and on

Until the world has gone

Take me on and on



The chains that hold you

Those chains will soon be gone

Sail upon the ocean

Sail back to me



Chorus



Take me on, on and on

I see it all below

I know which way to go

I see the afterglow



Chorus

DAVE DAVIES lyrics - See The Beast

See the beast,

Got such a hold on you,

Every way you turn,

But don't hang around now,

It's too late for politics to save you.

It's funny can't you see the dream,

Just hold it tenderly in your hand.



[Chorus]

For you,

For you to see you through the night.

For you,

For you to light your weary path.

Don't let him,

No, no, no,

Tell you that everything is wrong.

Don't let him,

No, no, no,

It's just his way to keep you lost.



See the beast,

Suddenly I noticed we were going nowhere.

But hold on though there is cold around you

Brother,

It won't last.

It's funny can't you see the dream,

Just hold it tenderly your hand and let

It go.

Don't let him break your heart,

He'll tear your soul apart,

Believe.



[Chorus]

For you,

For you to see through the night.

For you,

For you to see the wrong from the right.



See the beast,

Got such a hold on you,

Every way you turn,

But don't hang around now.

It's too late for politics to save you.



[Chorus]

Don't let him,

No, no, no,

Tell you that everything is wrong.

Don't let him,

No, no, no,

It's just his way to keep you lost.

GEORGE HARRISON lyrics - Fish On The Sand

I know you're in the sun

I know you're close to ev'ryone

At times it's like you don't have a hold on me



I see you in the love

I see you in the moon above

But I want to know that you're not lost inside of me



You know I need you

You know I love you

If I'm not with you

I'm not so much of a man

I'm like a fish on the sand



You call me in the night (you call me in the night)

And hide behind the daylight

You're blowing like a wind, you don't let me see



You know I feel a pain (you know I feel a pain)

I'm tired of playing games with you

Though there's nothing else I want that would set me free



You know I love you

You know I need you

If I can't be with you

I'm not so much of a man

I'm a fish on the sand



No use to no one else, they've all dried up

Watching all our lives go by

I can't believe you'd want to see me crying



I hold you in my heart (hold you in my heart)

I know that you're a part of me

But it's a must to know that you love me too



I look you in the eye (look you in the eye)

You're swimming by my teardrops

But I want to know for sure that you'll let me see



You know I want you

You know I need you

If I'm not with you

I'm not so much of a man

I'm like a fish on the sand



You know I need you

You know I love you

If I'm not with you

I'm not so much of a man

I'm a fish on the sand



Not so much of a man

More a fish on the sand

CAMEL lyrics - Harbour Of Tears

(Latimer/Hoover)



I am one of seven brothers.

Five of us must leave and start again.

In this land of Saints and Martyrs,

Tears of sadness hide within the rain.



So fare thee well, Remember me...

Sail from the Harbour of Tearss



I can hear my father calling

'Godspeed, my son,

wherever you may go'

He looked so small

down on the quayside.

A man I guess

I'll never really know.



Goodbye, lad... I'll miss you,

though I don't show it.

I am a farmer of the land,

I'm not a man of words.

Forgive me my failing,

you never knew me.

Godspeed wherever you may go...





So fare thee well,

Remember me...

Sail from the Harbour of Tears

ELVIS COSTELLO lyrics - I'll Never Fall In Love Again

(Burt Bacharach/Hal David)



What do you get when you fall in love?

A guy with a pin to burst your bubble

That's what you get for all your trouble

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again



What do you get when you kiss a girl

You get enough germs to catch pneumonia

After you do, she'll never phone you

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again



Don't tell me what it's all about

'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out

Out of those chains those chains that bind you

That is why I'm here to remind you



What do you get when you give your heart

You get it all broken up and battered

That's what you get, a heart that's shattered

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again



Out of those chains those chains that bind you

That is why I'm here to remind you



What do you get when you fall in love?

You only get lies and pain and sorrow

So for at least until tomorrow

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again



I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again

ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - I Found A Love

What would you do if I told you that I'm falling in love again?

I found a love that will hold my hand and baby she understands

A way to make my heart beat faster.

Is this heaven we're living in?

A way to make my life worth living.

I've fallen in love again.



I've got to ask you now, baby:



What would you say if I told you that I'm falling in love again?

I found a love that will hold my hand and baby she understands

A way to make my heart beat faster.

Is this heaven we're living in?

A way to make my life worth living.

I've fallen in love again.





[Repeat Second Verse]

ANNIE LENNOX lyrics - No More "I Love You's"

I used to be lunatic from the gracious days

I used to be woebegone and so restless nights

My aching heart would bleed for you to see

Oh but now...

(I don't find myself bouncing home whistling buttonhole tunes to make me cry)



No more "I love you's"

The language is leaving me

No more "I love you's"

Changes are shifting outside the word



(The lover speaks about the monsters)



I used to have demons in my room at night

Desire, despair, desire... SOOO MANY MONSTERS!

Oh but now...

(I don't find myself bouncing home whistling buttonhole tunes to make me cry)



No more "I love you's"

The language is leaving me

No more "I love you's"

The language is leaving me in silence

No more "I love you's"

Changes are shifting outside the word



(They were being really crazy

They were on the come.

And you know what mummy?

Everybody was being really crazy.

Uh huh. The monsters are crazy.

There are monsters outside.)



No more "I love you's"

The language is leaving me

No more "I love you's"

The language is leaving me in silence

No more "I love you's"

Changes are shifting outside the word

Outside the word

GOLDEN EARRING lyrics - As Long As The Wind Blows

(G. Kooymans)



How could I tell you that I loved you

You never gave me a chance

How could I know that you put me down

You had no reason, I'm on the ground



How could I know that you were out of reach

Higher than any star, sparklin' in the velvet sky

Why did you make me cry, I couldn't touch you



And I don't know why, yeah I don't know why

You hurt my soul and you lettin' me die

Yeah I don't know why and I don't know why

It's just another day to die, well I sit down and cry

No, no, no, no



As long as the wind blows

As long as the wind howls

As long as the sea flows

I can't stop lovin' you



Yeah I don't know why, oh I don't know why

You hurt my soul and you let me die

I don't know why, oh I don't know why

It's just another day to sigh, well I sit down and cry

No, no, no, no



As long as the wind blows

As long as the wind howls

As long as the sea flows

I can't stop lovin' you

MANOWAR lyrics - Gods Of War

Father on bended knee

I ask thee

Raise thy hand

We the sons of odin

Await thy command

Born under the sign

Of the hammer we stand

And here we all may die

Our blood on the ground

The battle horns sound

Let thy valkyries fly



Down from the sky

Into the fight

Hearts full of rage

Full of thunder and glory

Swords in the wind

Crossing the sky

Lords of doom

Bring an end to their story



Today is the day

We die in the fight

None shall remain to pass one more night

Now valhalla's calling us immortal

We are gods of war

Immortal

We are gods of war



Odin here the fallen wait

To join thee by thy side

Let valhalla's gates open wide



Born under the sign

Of the hammer they lived

And here they fought and died

Their blood on the ground

The battle horns sound

Let thy valkyries fly



Down from the sky

Into the fight

Hearts full of rage

Full of thunder and glory

Swords in the wind

Crossing the sky

Lords of doom

Bring an end to their story



Today is the day

We die in the fight

None shall remain

To pass one more night

Now valhalla's calling us

Immortal

We are gods of war

Immortal

We are gods of war



Down from the sky

Into the fight

Hearts full of rage

Full of thunder and glory

Swords in the wind

Crossing the sky

Lords of doom

Bring an end to their story

HELLOWEEN lyrics - A Little Time

Higher

It's what I expect from my life

It's like a wire

That holds me back down to the ground



Oh, I hear you say

"That is the way of the world"

No, hear what I say

"I wanna do so much in my way"

Higher

I've set my limits and bounds

There's a fire

It's burning so hot in my head



Oh, I hear you say

"That is the way of the world"

No, hear what I say

"I wanna do so much in my way"



[Chorus:]

We got

A little time to build up our lives

A little time to make up our minds

A little time to fill up our dreams

A little time, time



[Solo]



[Chorus]

HELLOWEEN lyrics - Get Me Out Of Here

I can't tell you how it happened

So I guess we'll never know

I'm always late and running out of time

So I must be very slow



Someone must have smoked too much

Or is it only dust

My pals just tend to leave here in disgust



My flat is a mess same as ever before

My suits they stink like you don't wanna know

Junk to the left, trash to the right

Get me out of here I can't take it anymore



When the postman rings I stay in bed

I never make it down

My fridge must be alive inside

It's uttering funny sounds

If I don't know what time it is

I peek out if there's sun

No use anyway, my money's gone



Get me out of here I can't take it anymore

DIANA ROSS lyrics - Didn't You Know (You'd Have To Cry Sometime)

(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)



Remember when you left?

You had your own rules about playing the game

And any day, you could walk away feeling no pain



Now look at yourself

You're all hung up on somebody else

And in your eyes I see all the signs of the misery

That you laid on me



Baby, baby

Didn't you know you'd have to cry sometime?

Didn't you know

Didn't you know you'd have to hurt sometime?

Didn't you know that you'd lose your pride?

Didn't anybody tell you love had another side?



You used to be so proud

Now, your head's a little lower

And you walk slower

And you don't talk so loud



You've gotten wise

You know how love can build you up one moment

And the next, cut you down to size

Then you discover

All she told you was a bunch of lies



Baby, baby

Didn't you know you'd have to cry sometime?

Didn't you know

Didn't you know you'd have to hurt sometime?

Didn't you know that you'd lose your pride?

Didn't anybody tell you love had another side?



Baby, baby

Didn't you know you'd have to cry sometime?

Didn't you know

Didn't you know you'd have to hurt sometime?

Didn't you know you'd have to cry sometime?

Didn't you know you'd have to hurt sometime?

Didn't you know you'd have to hurt sometime?

Didn't you know you'd have to hurt sometime?

DEAN MARTIN lyrics - The Magician

I met a magician

He did magical things

He said he could turn any heart

That was sad in to one that sings



I told the magician

What had happened to me

My sweetheart and I had a quarrel

And now I was blue as could be



He asked me to close my eyes

Waved his wand in the air

I looked and to my surprise

My sweetheart was there



We kissed in the moonlight

Stars were twinkling above

I suddenly knew this was no magic trick

Just the magic of love



(He asked me to close my eyes)

(Waved his wand in the air)

(I looked and to my surprise)

(My sweetheart was there)



We kissed in the moonlight

Stars were twinkling above

I suddenly knew Thais was no magic trick

Just the magic of love

Just the magic of love

STEVIE NICKS lyrics - Doing The Best I Can (Escape From Berlin)

It was one for you... it was three for me

It was very nice... it was everything

So here it is... in little pieces...

I just played the part... I didn't win or lose

Maybe next time I'll think about how I'm feeling...

"Cause I'm doing the best that I can

And the whispered secrets... go on and on

No one says anything to anyone

You watch after her... and your word is law

She thought she was out there... but nobody saw

I didn't win or lose... I just threw the cards

But I paid a price for it...



And it's alright, baby... I'm doing the best that I can

And I'm trying hard to change... I'm doing it the best that I can

Well because fate causes fortune and fortune takes it away

Well it's alright, baby... I'm doing the best that I can



I was silent... I was locked away

But I covered my tears...

Silent all day

It's out of my hands here



In my distress... well I wanted someone to blame me

In my devastation... I wanted so to change

In my way... disaster was the only thing that I could depend on...



But it's alright, baby... I'm doing the best that I can

Yes it's alright, baby... I'm doing the best that I can

Because fate causes fortune and fortune takes it away

And then fortune causes nightmares... nightmares that make you crazy

It's alright, baby... I'm doing the best that I can

It's alright, baby... I'm doing the best that I can

Oh he says, "Well I hear you're doing fine and you're doing the

Best that you can."

Well he says, "Oh, I hear you're doing fine and you're doing the

Best that you can."



Ooh she says, "It's alright, baby... I'm doing the best that I can."

Yes it's alright, baby... I'm doing the best that I can

Oh and he says, "I hear you're doing fine and you're doing it the

Best that you can."

Oh and he says, "Ooh I hear she's doing fine and she's doing it

The best that she can."

Oh and I paid a price for it...

I'm doing the best that I can...

BONNIE RAITT lyrics - Too Long At The Fair

Jesus cried, wept and died

I guess he went up to heaven

I've been downtown such a long, long time

I'll never make it home by seven

Won't you come & take me home

I've been too long at the fair

And, lord, I just can't stand it anymore



Well I went down to chason's

Walked 'til my feet got sore

I never knew what laughin' was

'til you walked out the door

Won't you come and take me home

I've been too long at the fair

And, lord, I just can't stand it anymore



Well, you can give my soul to abraham

Give my soul to saul

Give my bones to canada

My feet they don't hurt at all



I don't know who made the highway

I guess that's just my pride

But I have heard the prince of darkness

On his charger ride



The silver blade is gleamin'

The scales are in his hands

I swear another night is fallin',

Don't you lose another man

Won't you come and take me home

I've been too long at the fair

And, lord, I just can't stand it anymore

BILLY JOEL lyrics - I Go To Extremes

Call me a joker, call me a fool

Right at this moment I'm totally cool

Clear as a crystal, sharp as a knife

I feel like I'm in the prime of my life

Sometimes it feels like I'm going too fast

I don't know how long this feeling will last

Maybe it's only tonight



Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens

And if I stand or I fall

It's all or nothing at all

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes



Sometimes I'm tired, sometimes I'm shot

Sometimes I don't know how much more I've got

Maybe I'm headed over the hill

Maybe I've set myself up for the kill

Tell me how much do you think you can take

Until the heart in you is starting to break?

Sometimes it feels like it will



Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens

You can be sure when I'm gone

I won't be out there too long

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes



Out of the darkness, into the light

Leaving the scene of the crime

Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time

Sometimes I lie awake, night after night

Coming apart at the seams

Eager to please, ready to fight

Why do I go to extremes?



Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens

And if I stand or I fall

It's all or nothing at all

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

No I don't know why I go to extremes

Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens

You can be sure when I'm gone

I won't be out there too long

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

GEORGE BENSON lyrics - Theme From Summer Of '42

The summer smiles, the summer knows

And unashamed she sheds her clothes

The summer smoothes the restless sky

And lovingly she warms the sand, on which you lie



The summer knows, the summer's wise

She sees the doubts within your eyes

And so she takes her summertime



Tells the moon to wait and the sun to linger

Twists the world round her summer finger

Lets you see the wonder of it all



And if you've learned your lesson well

There's little more for her to tell

One last caress, it's time to dress, for fall



And if you've learned your lesson well

There's little more for her to tell

One last caress, it's time to dress, for fall

BRYAN ADAMS lyrics - (Todo Lo Que Hago) Lo Hago Por Ti

Mira mis ojos

y veras

que siento por ti



Explora

en tu ser

y hallaras, no buscaras mas



Dime que sientes mi calor

Y que corres podes (??) mi amor



Sabes que si

todo lo que hago

lo hago por ti.



Mira mis ojos

y sabras

que nada te ocultan



Soy como tu ves

tomame

quisiera poder, poderte lograr



Dime que sientes mi calor

nada quiero mas que tu amor

sabes que si

todo lo que hago

lo hago por ti



No hay amor

como tu

y otro que

te ame asi

No hay lugar si tu no estas

donde quisiera esta (??)



(Sigue al corazon)



Oh, dime que tu sientes mi calor

nada quiero mas que tu amor

Que luchar por ti

sufrir por ti

daria si

morir por ti



Sabes que si

todo lo que hago

ohhh, lo hago por ti.

TEENA MARIE lyrics - Off The Chain

Westside girl is dancing

Off the chain, it's sickening

Lady Tee is..

(Do you feel me)

Mmm



Got your dinner waiting on the table

I've even chilled the wine

Come over, baby

Boy, don't be crazy



You've been waiting for a little something

And your girl's about to break you right off

You're about to know my name

Baby's off the chain



Got you feeling

Off the chain

She sexing

Off the chain

She's flipping

Off the chain

Baby

Your girl is ill

She's off the chain

It's sickening

Off the chain

She's moaning

Off the chain



Mercury's rising and it's hot like fire

I'm feeling feverish

About to lace you

Can almost taste you



West coast's popping all around your body

And my shit's of the hook in the south

You'll never be the same

Baby's off the chain



Got you feeling

Off the chain

She sexing

Off the chain

She's flipping

Off the chain

Baby

Your girl is ill

She's off the chain

It's sickening

Off the chain

She's certainly

Off the chain



Did you ever think that we'd be making love like this

How can you resist me, baby

Now that we have kissed

I've been saving all my love

For only you

West coast is on and popping

Boy, you den started something



[Baby's rap:]

West coast's got your chest on swoll

Dirty South's insatiable

Northeast, tell me now what you say

Got your taste buds tanging like Alize

Lady's banging all out your back

Got your heartbeat racing like a heart attack

Going on and on to the break of dawn

And shit don't stop to the early morn



Off the chain

Off the chain

Baby's off the chain

Do your thang

Do your thang

This love is good

It's off the

Off the chain

Off the chain

Baby's off the chain

Do your thang

Do your thang

This love is good

It's off the

Chain

Chain

Chain

Uh



West coast's popping

It's off the chain

East Coast's flipping

It's off the chain

Midwest's banging

It's off the chain

Dirty South is off the chain [2x]



Got you feeling

Mm

She's fine

She's sickening

She's moaning off the

Your girl is ill

She's off the

She's sick

And she's off the

She's flipping off the

She's freaking off the chain

THE WHO lyrics - Sally Simpson

Outside the house Mr. Simpson announced

that Sally couldn't go to the meeting.

He went on cleaning his blue Rolls Royce

and she ran inside weeping.

She got to her room and tears splashed the picture

of the new Messiah.

She picked up a book of her fathers life

and threw it on the fire!



She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart,

But her Mother said never mind your part...

Is to be what you'll be.



The theme of the sermon was come unto me,

Love will find a way,

So Sally decided to ignore her dad,

and sneak out anyway!

She spent all afternoon getting ready,

and decided she'd try to touch him,

Maybe he'd see that she was free

and talk to her this Sunday.



She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart,

But her Mother said never mind your part...

Is to be what you'll be.



She arrived at six and the place was swinging

to gospel music by nine.

Group after group appeared on the stage

and Sally just sat there crying.

She bit her nails looking pretty as a picture

right in the very front row

And then a DJ wearing a blazer with a badge

ran on and said 'here we go!'



The crowd went crazy

As Tommy hit the stage!

Little Sally got lost as the police bossed

The crowd back in a rage!



But soon the atmosphere was cooler

as Tommy gave a lesson.

Sally just had to let him know she loved him

and leapt up on the rostrum!

She ran cross stage to the spotlit figure

and touched him on the face

Tommy whirled around as a uniformed man,

threw her of the stage.



She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart,

But her Mother said never mind your part...

Is to be what you'll be.

Her cheek hit a chair and blood trickled down,

mingling with her tears,

Tommy carried on preaching

and his voice filled Sally's ear

She caught his eye she had to try

but couldn't see through the lights

Her face was gashed and the ambulance men

had to carry her out that night.



The crowd went crazy

As Tommy left the stage!

Little Sally was lost for the price of a touch

And a gash across her face! OOoooh.



Sixteen stitches put her right and her Dad said

'don't say I didn't warn yer'.

Sally got married to a rock musician

she met in California

Tommy always talks about the day

the disciples all went wild!

Sally still carries a scar on her cheek

to remind her of his smile.



She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart,

But her Mother said never mind your part...

Is to be what you'll be.

ELTON JOHN lyrics - Circle Of Life

From the day we arrive on the planet

And blinking, step into the sun

There's more to be seen than can ever be seen

More to do than can ever be done



Some say eat or be eaten

Some say live and let live

But all are agreed as they join the stampede

You should never take more than you give



In the circle of life

It's the wheel of fortune

It's the leap of faith

It's the band of hope

Till we find our place

On the path unwinding

In the circle, the circle of life



Some of us fall by the wayside

And some of us soar to the stars

And some of us sail through our troubles

And some have to live with the scars



There's far too much to take in here

More to find than can ever be found

But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky

Keeps great and small on the endless round

THE MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP lyrics - Over Now

In the warmth of the dawn

We made it so far

Thought this was forever

But the cold has come

And the pain is so strong

Why you leavin' this way?



Promises frozen in time



Is it over now?

You know I tried so hard

I believe in our love!

Is it over now?

I'm down on on my knees babe

It's all I can do

This heart belongs to you



I know you're sailing on

It's all too much to bear

When I can't feel your love

Is the feeling gone?

Have we been here too long?

Oh won't you tell me now

Promises frozen in time



Is it over now?

You know I tried so hard

I believe in our love!

Is it over now?

I'm down on on my knees babe

It's all I can do

This heart belongs to you



I've loved you for so long

We made it too far

To waste it all

I'll keep on holding out

My love will never fade

Why you leaving this way?

Promises frozen in time



Is it over now?

You know I tried so hard

I believe in our love!

Is it over now?

I'm down on on my knees babe

It's all I can do



Is it over now?

You know I tried so hard

I believe in our love!

Is it over now?

I'm down on on my knees babe

It's all I can do

IRON MAIDEN lyrics - The Aftermath

(Steve Harris, Blaze Bayley and Janick Gers)



Silently to silence fall

In the fields of future war

Toys of death are spitting lead

Where boys that were our soldiers bled

War horse and war machine



Curse the name of liberty

Marching on as if they should

Mix in the dirt our brothers' blood



In the mud and rain

What are we fighting for

Is it worth the pain

Is it worth dying for

Who will take the blame

Why did they make a war

Questions that come again

Should we be fighting at all



Once a ploughman hitches his team

Here he sowed? his little dream

Now bodies arms and legs are strewn

Where mustard gas and barbwire bloom

Each moment's like a year

I've nothing legt? inside for tears

Comrades dead or dying lie

I'm left alone asking why



In the mud and rain

What are we fighting for

Is it worth the pain

Is it worth dying for

Who will take the blame

Why did they make a war

Questions that come again

Should we be fighting at all



After the war

Left feeling no one has won

After the war

What does a soldier become



War is over and battles are gone

After the war no one has won

I'm just a soldier

MISFITS lyrics - Come Back

Come back little raven and bite my face

I've been waiting, endless waiting

Come back and bite my face



Come back little raven, descend your home

This is not then, it is not now

Come back, descend your throne



I think you realize what I've done

Well, on a corner slept my horrible corpse

I'm not alive for anyone

I think you realize what I've done



You gotta come back

You gotta come back

You gotta come back

You gotta come back



Come back little raven, here by my face

I've been waiting, endless waiting

Come back and bite my face



I think you realize what I've done

We're on the corner, slashed my heart for fun

I'm not alive for anyone

I think you realize what I've done



You gotta come back

You gotta come back

You gotta come back

You gotta come back



You gotta come back, come back, well, come back

Right back to me

You gotta come back, come back, come on back

Right back to me

You gotta come back, come back, come on back

Right back to me

You gotta come back, come back, come on back

Right back to me, yeah

JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics - Frank And Lola

Lola loves Frank, Frankie loves Lola

On their second honeymoon in Pensacola

Tryin' to find a little privacy, oh me

There'd been too much screamin', fussin' and fightin'

The doggies were yellin;, the children were bitin'

Frank and Lola tryin' to get together again



So he took her to this movie called "Body Heat"

She said, "The Junior Mints were mushy and the sex was neat.

Oh my, Frankie weren't we better than that before our spat."

Frankie told Lola, "Honey, can't you see that I'll jump start you if

you'll kick start me."

Frankie and Lola, tryin' to get together again.



So they strolled along the highway, they walked along the beach

They stopped at several raw bars where they slurped a dozen each

Bought a bunch of popcorn from the fat man on the dock

Baby, turn back the pages, turn round the clock.



Lola told Frank, "Time we put it to the test."

After Frankie told Lola she was still the best

They fell asleep in the sand underneath the Florida moon in June.

Lola counted rainbows, Frankie counted sheep

Til they almost got run over by the lifeguards' jeep

Frank and Lola tryin' to get together again.



Go, Frank, go

Lola, Lo

Go Frank, go, wow



So they strolled along the highway, they walked along the beach

They stopped at several raw bars, ......ETC.

.......turn round the clock.



Lola loves Frank, Frankie loves Lola

On their second honeymoon in Pensacola

Trying to find a little priva

Trying to find a little priva

Trying to find a little privacy



Go, Frank, go

Lola, lo

Go, Mango

Gonna have a crash - bang - crash

I'm not dead yet - dead yet

Gonna have a crash - bang - crash

Crash - bang - crash

Crash - bang - crash

Crash - bang - it's not over yet

Alive and I'm still kicking

Alive and on the boil

Alive the bomb's still ticking

I'm your rock and roll

Tonight is all for giving

Tonight is all for fun

Tonight is your beginning

My rocking's never done

I'm not dead yet - dead yet, ...

Crash - bang - crash, ...

Don't you feel assaulted

Don't you feel alive

Don't you wish your enemies

Are dead and not alive

Give in to the music

Give in to the soul

Shifting up the power

It's all for rock and roll

I'm not dead yet - dead yet, ...

Crash - bang - crash, ...

MOTLEY CRUE lyrics - Girls, Girls, Girls

Friday night and I need a fight

My motorcycle and a switchblade knife

Handful of grease in my hair feels right

But what I need to make me tight are



Girls, Girls, Girls

Long legs and burgundy lips

Girls,

Dancin' down on Sunset Strip

Girls

Red lips, fingertips



Trick or treat-sweet to eat

On Halloween and New Year's Eve

Yankee girls ya just can't beat

But they're the best when they're off their feet



Girls, Girls, Girls

At the Dollhouse in Ft. Lauderdale

Girls, Girls. Girls

Rocking in Atlanta at Tattletails

Girls, Girls, Girls

Raising Hell at the 7th Veil Have you read the news

In the Soho Tribune

Ya know she did me

Well then she broke my heart



I'm such a good good boy

I just need e new toy

I tell ya what, girl

Dance for me, I'll keep you overemployed

Just tell me a story

You know the one I mean



Crazy Horse, Paris, France

Forget the names, remember romance

I got the photos, a menage a trois

Musta broke those Frenchies laws with those



Girls, Girls. Girls

Body Shop. Marble Arch

Girls, Girls, Girls

Tropicana's where I lost my heart



Girls, Girls, Girls

VAN MORRISON lyrics - Coney Island

Coming down from Downpatrick

Stopping off at St. John's Point

Out all day birdwatching

And the craic was good

Stopped off at Strangford Lough

Early in the morning

Drove through Shrigley taking pictures

And on to Killyleagh

Stopped off for Sunday papers at the

Lecale District, just before Coney Island



On and on, over the hill to Ardglass

In the jamjar, autumn sunshine, magnificent

And all shining through



Stop off at Ardglass for a couple of jars of

Mussels and some potted herrings in case

We get famished before dinner



On and on, over the hill and the craic is good

Heading towards Coney Island



I look at the side of your face as the sunlight comes

Streaming through the window in the autumn sunshine

And all the time going to Coney Island I'm thinking,

Wouldn't it be great if it was like this all the time.

PUBLIC IMAGE LIMITED lyrics - Rise

(written by Lydon, Laswell, remixed by Bob Clearmountain)



I could be wrong I could be right

I could be wrong I could be right

I could be wrong I could be right

I could be black I could be white

I could be black I could be white

I could be white I could be black

Your time has come your second skin

The cost so high the gain so low

Walk through the valley

The written word is a lie



May the road rise with you

May the road rise with you

May the road rise with you



I could be wrong I could be right

I could be wrong I could be right

I could be black I could be white

I could be right I could be wrong

I could be black I could be white



They put a hot wire to my head

Cos of the things I did and said

And made these feelings go away

Model citizen in every way



Anger is an energy

The written word is a lie



I could be wrong I could be right

Could be wrong -

They put a hot wire to my head

Cos of the things I did and said

A model citizen in every way

Your time has come your second skin

Cost so high the gain so low

Cos of the things I did and said

A model citizen in every way

Your time has come your second skin

Cost so high the gain so low

THE OFFSPRING lyrics - All Along

Deep inside secret's burning

I Should have known all the while what's true

I went along, to fool myself

Can't go on, I can't escape it



All along

I think I really knew

It was there in the words unspoken

All along

Still believed in you

Now I stand here betrayed and broken



Close my eyes from the burning

All along all the while it's true

Take it on, or turn your back

Either way, you can't escape it

QUIET RIOT lyrics - Eye For An Eye

You turned me over now I'll turn you around

Mistakes are made, foul play

You have givin' is what I found

You'll be my queen for a day

I'm no matinee idol

You put it in the wrong way

If I was Valentino

It'd been the same



It's like an eye for an eye

Give me some proof

Speak up now or it's a tooth for a tooth

An eye for an eye

Give me some proof

Time is runnin' out on you



Watcha gonna do?



No need to smile while I make my advance

But please don't turn away

Your reputation got me into your pants

But you weren't that great

Well now you turned the tables

It's the other way

I've got my revenge baby

And you want to stay



It's like an eye for an eye

Give me some proof

Speak up now or it's a tooth for a tooth

An eye for an eye

Give me some proof

Time is runnin' out on you



Watcha gonna do?



It's like an eye for an eye

Give me some proof

Speak up now or it's a tooth for a tooth

An eye for an eye

Give me some proof

Time is runnin' out on you



Watcha gonna do?

Watcha gonna do?

Watcha gonna do?

Watcha gonna do?

Watcha gonna do?

Watcha gonna do?

Watcha gonna do?

ANITA BAKER lyrics - Lead Me Into Love

(Steve Lane & Larry Prentiss)



We may never understand

If love just happens or it's planned

We must believe our spirits know somehow

Baby, we can't stop the falling we feel now oooh



New emotions overflow

And now this heartbeat wants control oooh baby

If the love was meant to be so strong

Something close to magic's coming on



Take my heart and lead me into love

Light the way for me

Without your touch, I cannot see

Lead me into love

I'm deep in the miracle of you oooh

LEONARD COHEN lyrics - The Window

Why do you stand by the window

Abandoned to beauty and pride

The thorn of the night in your bosom

The spear of the age in your side

Lost in the rages of fragrance

Lost in the rags of remorse

Lost in the waves of a sickness

That loosens the high silver nerves

Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love

Oh tangle of matter and ghost

Oh darling of angels, demons and saints

And the whole broken-hearted host

Gentle this soul



And come forth from the cloud of unknowing

And kiss the cheek of the moon

The New Jerusalem glowing

Why tarry all night in the ruin

And leave no word of discomfort

And leave no observer to mourn

But climb on your tears and be silent

Like a rose on its ladder of thorns



Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love...



Then lay your rose on the fire

The fire give up to the sun

The sun give over to splendour

In the arms of the high holy one

For the holy one dreams of a letter

Dreams of a letter's death

Oh bless thee continuous stutter

Of the word being made into flesh



Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love...



Gentle this soul

DEEP PURPLE lyrics - Love Conquers All

(Blackmore/Glover/Turner)



Feels like the end

When you're closer to losing your dreams

Than losing a friend

Flying blind

I'm shooting into the dark

Who will I find

Oh girl

And if it takes me a lifetime

I swear I'll tear down every wall

Love conquers all



On my way

Tomorrow I rise with the sun

Soon I'll be gone

Words can't say

How the memories of feelings of love

They linger on

Oh girl

And if it takes me forever

I know it's worth every teardrop that falls

Love conquers all



Somewhere there's a place in your heart

Where the wounds never heal

Well you're not alone

That's just how I feel



Love conquers all

This one will last a lifetime

And if love conquers all

This one will last forever

THE OFFSPRING lyrics - One Fine Day

If I had a perfect day

I would have it start this way

Open up the fridge and have a tall boy

Yeah



Then I'd meet up with my friends

Head out to the game again

We don't even really care who wins

Now excitement seems to grow

When we're hangin' with the bro's

When we're chillin' and we pound a case of Stroh's

Now the game is cool to see

You can "High 5" on TV

Count the riot on the one two three

Operation is in sight

And the field is open wide

When you break it then you know you're still alive

If the cops don't make you pay

And you make your getaway

Then you know

That's one fine day



On that day before we're through

We could torch a car or two

Then have ourselves another tall boy

Yeah



Water hoses and batons

That's the real game that's on

I don't really give a shit who wins



I believe it's my god-given right

To destroy everything in my sight

Cause it never gets dull, it never gets old

The only thing it gets is more bold

Drinkin', fightin', going to the game

In our world it's a way to stay sane

If you're asking me

To have it my way, I'd say that's

One fine day

HARRY CONNICK, JR. lyrics - A Blessing And A Curse

I forget what happens on the Fourth of July

Or when the rent is due

Dates and deadlines just float by

But I always remember you



What Colombus set out to discover

Isabelle already knew

There'll be horizons and skylines and other lovers

But I always remember you



If I could rearrange history

And give it to you as a gift

There would be one more movement

In Beethoven's fifth



Why, oh why, in a land of plenty

Some just have to make due

At the end of a breadline with just a penny

I'll always remember you

THE SCORPIONS lyrics - She Said

(Music: Christian Kolonovits, Klaus Meine; Lyrics: Klaus Meine)



In every corner of my memory

There's no place you wouldn't be

lf anything, I wish I had

Another dream with you

Life was forever yesterday

Nothing in the world could take

Your love away, will I ever know

That time will ease the pain

For me someday



She said I won't leave you, ever

Just love me forever

She said you can leave, but never

Walk away



Lights reflecting in the evening sun

Back to the place where we were one

Soul mates forever about to chase

Rainbows in the dark

Another day to destiny

Come on and set me free

When I close my eyes, I see your smile

As I walk in the pouring rain

I call your name



She said I won't leave you, ever

Just love me forever

She said, we will be together, someday

She said I won't leave you, ever

Just love me forever

She said, you can leave, but never

Walk away



I can see a million faces

When I take a walk outside

But I just never knew

That I could go a million places

And I'd see always, only you



The loneliness crawls up on me

Without you there's no me

At any time or any place

But time will ease the pain

For me someday



She said I won't leave you, ever

Just love me forever

She said, we will be together, someday

She said, I will wait forever

I won't leave you ever

She said, you can leave, but never

Ever walk away



Don't walk away

Oh no don't walk away

I'II be waiting, always

Until you'Il wake up from this dream

Someday

RAY CHARLES lyrics - With A Song in My Heart

Though I know that we meet ev'ry night

And we couldn't heve change since the last time,

To my joy and delight,

It's a new kind of love at first sight.

Though it's you and it's I all the time

Ev'ry meeting's marvelous pastime.

You're increasingly sweet,

So whenever we happened to met

I greet you...



With a song in my heart

I behold your adorable face.

Just a song at the start

But it soon is a hymn to your grace.

When the music swells

I'm touching you hand

It tells that your're standing near, and..

At the sound of your voice

Heaven opens his portals to me.

Can I help but rejoice

That a song such as ours came to be?

But I always knew

I would live life through

With a song in my heart for you.



Oh, the moon's not a moon for a night

And these stars will not twinkle and fade out,

And the words in my ears

Will resound for the rest of my years.

In the morning I find with delight

Not a note of our music is played out.

It will be just as sweet,

And an air that I'll live to repeat:

I greet you...



With a song in my heart

I behold your adorable face.

Just a song at the start

But it soon is a hymn to your grace.

When the music swells

I'm touching you hand

It tells that you're standing near, and..

At the sound of your voice

Heaven opens his portals to me.

Can I help but rejoice

That a song such as ours came to be?

But I always knew

I would live life through

With a song in my heart for you.

MEN AT WORK lyrics - Snakes And Ladders

I could stand but I don't like the feeling

I could fall but I'm always on the floor

You could make a million staring at the ceiling

ou could break your back and still be poor



One for the liar

One for the cheat

One for the man who you'll never meet

Piece of the action and a portion of pie

They'll be there waiting when your big chance comes by



There's a snake on top of every ladder

Who will tell you that he's your best friend

Everyone important needs an adder

But subtraction gets you in the end



One for the liar

One for the cheat

One for the man who you'll never meet

Piece of the action and a portion of pie

They'll be there waiting when your big chance comes by



They don't care they don't mind

The in-betweens will steal you blind

I don't know I can't say

It seems its always been this way

You won't feel or complain

The gentle leech will cause no pain

MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER lyrics - I Take My Chances

(Mary Chapin Carpenter/Don Schlitz)



I took a walk in the rain one day on the wrong side of the tracks

I stood on the rails till I saw that train

Just to see how my heart would react

Now some people say that you shouldn't tempt fate

And for them I would not disagree

But I never learned nothing from playing it safe

I say fate should not tempt me



I take my chances, I don't mind working without a net

I take my chances, I take my chances every chance I get



I sat alone in the dark one night, tuning in by remote

I found a preacher who spoke of the light but there was brimstone in his throat

He'd show me the way according to him in return for my personal check

I flipped my channel back to CNN and I lit another cigarette



I take my chances, forgiveness doesn't come with a debt

I take my chances, I take my chances every chance I get



I've crossed lines of words and wire and both have cut me deep

I've been frozen out and I've been on fire and the tears are mine to weep

Now I can cry until I laugh and laugh until I cry

So cut the deck right in half, I'll play from either side



I take my chances, I pay my dollar and I place my bet

I take my chances, I take my chances every chance I get

I take my chances, I don't cling to remorse or regret

I take my chances, I take my chances every chance I get

I take my chances



I take my chances

LORETTA LYNN lyrics - We've Already Tasted Love

(Bobby Harden)



I didn't mean for this to get so out of hand when I first met you

But the more we see each other or the more we want to

We can't stop this ain't something we can't turn off like a light

It's too late we've already tasted love



You made me feel the way he hasn't made me feel in so long

And it's beyond my pwerful courage just to walk out and go home

What we found in each other's arms it's always on my mind

It's too late we've already tasted love

[ piano ]

We can't stop this ain't something...

LOU REED lyrics - No Chance

It must be nice to be steady, it must be nice to be firm

It must be nice never to move off the mark

It must be nice to be dependable and never let anyone down

It must be great to be all the things you're not

It must be great to be all the things that I'm not



I see you in the hospital your humor is intact

I'm embarrassed by the strength I seem to lack

If I was in your shoes

so strange that I'm not

I'd fold up in a minute and a half

and I didn't get a chance to say goodbye



It must be nice to be normal it must be nice to be cold

It must be nice not to have to go oh up or down

But me I'm all emotional no matter how I try

you're gone and I'm still here alive

and I didn't get a chance to say goodbye

No - I didn't get a chance to say goodbye



There are things we say we wish we knew and in fact we never do

But I'd wish I'd known that you were going to die

Then I wouldn't feel so stupid, such a fool that I didn't call

And I didn't get a chance to say goodbye

I didn't get a chance to say goodbye



No there's no logic to this - who's picked to stay or go

If you think too hard it only makes you mad

But your optimism made me think you really had it beat

So I didn't get a chance to say goodbye

I didn't get a chance to say goodbye

FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Ev'rybody Has The Right To Be Wrong! (At Least Once)

(S. Cahn, J. Van Heusen)



[Recorded August 23, 1965, Hollywood]



Everybody has the right to be wrong at least once

Everybody has the right to be dunce-like, once-like

Not being too smart is, is no disgrace

What sets you apart is smilin' with egg on your face



Its naive to make believe that you're right, it's not bright

Only fools go walking on thin ice, twice



You and life can skip the strife and you'll both get along

All it takes is simply saying you're wrong when you're wrong

And everybody has the right to be wrong



[brief musical interlude]



You and life can skip the strife and you'll both get along

All it takes is simply sayin' you're wrong when you're wrong

And everybody has the right to be

It can be a real delight to be

And I'd fight, fight for the right to be wrong



[Spoken:]

"At least once!"

UFO lyrics - It's Killing Me

Living inside a bottle

Strung out on a line

Caught in life's rough and tumble

Blind leading the blind

I wish there was an answer

But she's got such an easy way

And you know you can't leave her

And you know you can stay



(1) Oh it's killing me

Oh, love's a mystery

Oh, it's killing me

Oh, love's a mystery



We're hiding from the small talk

And hiding all the pain

With our backs against the wall

Is all this love in vain



(1) Repeat



When I'm with you you know I try so hard

Not to love you but I keep up my guard

Every single day that goes by

Are we fooling ourselves living a lie



[INSTRUMENTAL]



Please tell me now it's no secret

Is there surrender with defeat

Do you let love pass you by

Walk to a different beat



(1) Repeat

KINGDOM COME lyrics - Religion Needs No Winner

Being burned by the flame

I believe it's not the same

A sign of the time

It's a very dangerous game

I simply can't ignore

What's causing so much war

Religion's no excuse

For all the damned abuse



We're shedding blood in vein

So intense, so much pain

The truth we cannot see

An illusion of being free



Believe in something good

You defenitely should

Wanna change it, make a deal

Get back to what is real



Cry out - start to conquer your doubts

(Reach out - love is showing you how)



[Chorus:]

Religion - needs no winner

White pidgeon - can't be the sinner

TALKING HEADS lyrics - Sax And Violins

Falling falling

Gonna drop like a stone

I'm falling through the atmosphere

On a warm afternoon

If lovers discover

That ev'ryone dies

So don't tell me, please hole me

It's a dangerous life



Daddy dear

Let's get outta here

I'm scared

10 o'clock

Nighttime in New York

It's weird



If you're looking for trouble

That's what you will find



Mom & pop

They will fuck you up

For sure

Love so deep

Kills you in your sleep

It's true



Love keeps us together

And love keeps us alive



And we - are criminals that never

broke no laws

And all - we needed was a net

to break our fall



They're searching for diamonds

They're grabbin' at straws

Sex 'n' sin

Sax 'n' violins

It's hell

Wooden heads

Furniture with legs

For sale -



Love keeps us together

And love will drive us insane



And we - are criminals that never

broke no laws

And all - we needed was a net

to break our fall



Going home

Back where I belong

To stay -

Rays of light

They will turn the light

TO day -



Birds travel together

Birds follow the sun

And I - am watching as the birds go flying home

FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - Half A Dozen Provocative Squats

The clock upon the wall

Has struck the midnight hour!

She finishes her call;

Her girlfriend's in the shower



Practisissing, Practiss, Practicing!



Half a dozen provocative squats!

Out of the shower, she squeezes her spots;

Brushes her teeth;

Shoots a deodorant spray up her twat. . .

(It's getting her, getting her

Hot-Oh-woh-woh-woh-woh-woh)

She's just twenty-four

And she can't get off,

A sad but typical case, yeah

Last dude to do her

Got in and got soft;

She blew it,

And laughed in his face, yeah!

Face, yeah!

Yeah

THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY lyrics - Every Song Is You

(Terry Cashman & Tommy West)



Magazines and afternoon dreams get me through the day

And 'till the night can smile for the people as I sing and I play

I left home it seems like a century ago

I never thought I could miss anybody so, but now I know



[Chorus:]

Everywhere I go, everything I do

Every song is you

Searched my mind just to find

Something I always knew

Everywhere I go, everything I do

Every song is you

Searched my mind just to find

Something I always knew

Every song is you



Singing man with a six-piece song band, answer to my dreams

And every time I sing without you, how lonely it seems

I love you now like I never loved you before

Each day that goes by, I find that I want you so, I need you more



[Chorus 2x]

JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics - Uncle John's Band

Well the first days are the hardest days

Don't you worry any more

Cause when life looks like easy street

There is danger at the door

Think this through with me, let me know your mind

Oh oh all I want to know is are you kind



It's a buck dancer's choice my friend

You better take my advice

You know all the rules by now

And the fire from the ice

Will you come with me, won't you come with me

Oh oh all I want to know, will you come with me



God damn I declare have you seen the like

Their walls are built with cannon balls

Their motto is don't tread on me

Come hear Uncle John's band playing to the tide

Come on along or go alone,

He's come to take his children home



It's the same story the crow told me

It's the only one he knows

Like the morning sun you come and like the wind you go

Ain't no time to hate, barely time to wait

Oh oh all I want to know where does the time go



I live in a silver mine and I call it Beggar's Tomb

I've got me a violin and I beg you call the tune

Any body's choice, I can hear your voice

Oh oh all I want to know how does the song go



Come hear Uncle John's band by the river side

Got some things to talk about

Here beside the rising tide

Come hear Uncle John's band playing to the tide

Come on along or go alone

He's come to take his children home

SUPERTRAMP lyrics - Rosie Had Everything Planned

Acting upon information received

Rosie had everything planned

Stood in a garden with a shotgun in hand

What a woman



Whilst entertaining the headlines next day

Rosie would not be released

If it was found that her man was deceased

Silly woman



Oh but Rosie, a girl with a strange kind of humor

Stupidly took it a roomer

Making her think that she'd lost

Double-crossed by a man who still



Stood in the garden and shaking her head

Rosie could not understand

Wiping her eyes with the back of her hand

Sad, sad woman



Oh but Rosie, how could a few words have made her

Certain that he had betrayed her

Making her think that she'd lost

Double-crossed by a man who still very near to her



Row upon row of angel-hair

Rosie had everything planned

Sure that the people would not understand

Sad, sad woman

SIMPLE MINDS lyrics - Woman

Spirit of girl I know's in front of me

I brought her home its where she'd want to be

Picture of some strange tattooed bird on her thigh

Shine on walk on take a walk with me

Something going I can tell

The way you know its meant to be

There's something taking all your life

You're drifting far away from me



Spirit of the one I love walk in the room

It gets so hard when it's all too soon

Lover's lonely planet blue smoke in your eyes

Shine on get home when are you gonna rise



Shook my life

Mercury

You don't live here any more

Shine on

Mercury



Walking the the sunlight to the old courtyard

Where the weather's warm and the air tastes sweet

In a world where words can say what's in her eyes,

She will epitomise, so let her rest in peace.



Something's going I can tell

The way you know it's meant to be

Something taking all your life

And you're drifting far away from me



Something I can tell you

Mercury

Something I can tell you

Really want to tell you I'd really love to tell you
